Police in Alabama have arrested four black men in connection with the beating of a white Alabama high school student who had posted pro-Blue Lives Matter Comments in support of cops.
In a statement, Sylacauga Police Chief Kelley Johnson says four recent Sylacauga High School students were arrested Tuesday following the September 30 attack against 17-year-old Brian Ogle.
Ogle's mother, Brandi Allen, says her son responded to students wearing Black Lives Matter T-shirts at his school with Blue Lives Matter. He was hospitalized with serious head injuries.
Two of the four suspects, 20-year-old Quartez Walker and 19-year-old Bobby Brown, were taken into custody at Stillman College.
La Noah Ealy Jr, 18, was arrested at Auburn University in Montgomery, while 20-year-old Daveon Nix was arrested in Sylacauga.
Walker was booked on a first-degree assault charge and his bond was set at $20,000.
The other three suspects face charges of second-degree assault and are being held on $15,000 each.
Talladega County District Attorney Steve Giddens said Walker was charged with a more serious criminal count because he believes the 20-year-old man was the only one in the group who was armed with a gun, which he allegedly used to strike Ogle.
Suspect Daveon Nix is the son of a newly elected local councilwoman, Tiffany Nix.
Just days before her son's arrest, Councilwoman-elect Nix, representing Sylacauga District 2, addressed the subject of racial tensions in the city in general, and the attack on Brian Ogle in particular, in an interview with The Daily Home, saying, in part, that parents should set a good example for their children.

Just like YOU did?...............
Did she resign?...............
Barely worth mentioning at this point, but all four were “recent...high school students”. Two of these dregs are 20. So at a minimum, both were held back two years, possibly three.
Go on, tell me how IQ isn’t any kind of indicator for success, or that it has any connection to one’s genetic background. And while you’re at it, pull the other leg too, it has bells on it.
Should she be allowed to continue?
Well Obama, if you had sons............
What a pathetic POTUS you are.
There is only one cure for this malaise, which is at this point a pandemic threat to every American. Forearmed is forearmed.
Period.

It took FOUR brave nights to beat up one HS girl?
LOLOLOL
The headline told me that it could not have been published in the USA.
These rump clowns had better start thinking about the consequences of their actions. If the Black community doesn't stand up and demand that this Black racist violence end, they will continue to be complicit in its growth.
And that would be bad, for children and for all living things.

When my wife was in 8th grade in a Chicago suburb (around 1969), a new girl started going there. She was from Nebraska, I believe. Anyway, three of them were walking through the breezeway between buildings and a group of black girls were walking by and started hurling insults at them.
Now, my wife and the other girl knew how it worked and told the new girl to just ignore them and everything would be fine. But being from a “normal” area, dealing with reasonable people, she turned to them and said something along the lines of “can’t we just be friends”. At this, the black girls attacked and my wife and her friend scattered as this girl took a beating that put her in the hospital.
It’s hard to get past that.

I suppose...but there are some additional factors to consider here, IMHO. For starters, these are former students from this kid’s high school - so its likely a few of them knew the kid. So, they laid in wait in a very premeditated way, to attack a child (he was 17) who they had specifically targeted...they had time to form a plan, and the plan they developed included hitting his skull with a gun. And after breaking his skull in three places, they leave him for dead in a parking lot. And isn’t using a gun when committing a crime an aggravating factor or a separate gun charge?
I’d be scouring their social media posts for boasts and claims that they wanted to kill the kid.
I grew up in Alabama, and I too predict bad things for these men in prison. However, I’d wager the 3 with lesser charges spend less than 3 years behind bars...and they’ll drag out the trial, so much of that time is spent in a county jail.
The irony, the irony.
Assuming they can resume their studies, will the band geeks gang up on them, or, change the name of the band?
Yes - of the victim for posting hateful rhetoric....
She’s probably from a ‘safe’ district..............
In my state, there is no charge for attempted murder. Felony assault pretty much covers it.
